64 We're Surrounded

"Stop!" I said to the driver.

The driver pulled over under a tree on the side of the road. I held a knife to his neck with one hand and reached for the keys with the other.

"Stay in the car!" I threatened the driver.

He sat in the driver's seat. I quickly opened the door and got out of the car and immediately pressed the car's lock button. I glanced at the driver and mouthed an apology to him.

He shook his head at my behavior. I put the keys on the hood of the car and immediately turned and ran to the dock.

A gloomy sky hung over the land, and the blue water turned dark blue in the light of the sky. I quietly followed a porter to the ship. The man in the gray tattered T-shirt was carrying heavy loads on his shoulders. He looked down at the road and didn't realize that someone was following him. Not until he put down the goods did he see that I had entered the warehouse. The man looked surprised before he could speak. Another man's voice came.
